    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    Images attached This is a i5-8500 with 8gb RAM. Primary drive is a 120GB SSD, storage is a 4TB WD Purple. I've set up 20+ systems using this mixture and never had an FPS issue like this. Argh! NOTE: The "no signal" count of 5 is from moving switches around. The system does not register...

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    Thanks again. Is there a way to view FPS in PSS? The stream looks pretty smooth, but I'd like to compare FPS values if possible.

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    I'll do that today, thanks! Still no resolution on this issue. I've swapped out the 16 port switch with no change in behavior. I did notice that the network adapter on the Blue Iris box shows as "unidentified network." I'll try to resolve that today as well.

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    That's a cool utility, thank you. I ran it for a few minutes with the same settings and it had very little jitter. I'll keep testing and see if I can line up ping slowness with the FPS drop. UPDATE: I noticed the fps drop and the pings were not affected as compared to the graph I posted above.

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    All network traffic is at the switch level. The only connection back to the Orbi is the single run that connects it to the 16 port switch.

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    I know where to toggle CBR to VBR, but where do you set the "cap" at 8Mbps? Thank you for the suggestion.

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    Yes, I always use direct-to-disc. I'm going to reboot the PoE switches at the end of the day and see if that helps things.

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    Bitrate for each camera is 4096, type CBR. IFRAME for each camera is 30. I'm not sure where the Quality value is set. Do you mean resolution?

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    Yeah... I'm stumped. I've also confirmed the link registers as gigabit between the GS116 and the GS108 (and also between both GS108 switches).

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    Sorry... I made a mistake. The 16 port switch is a GS116 (gigabit). There is only one LAN connection to the Orbi, and that is the GS116. I will try connecting the BI machine to the GS108. Cameras and server all have static IPs.

    FPS in application lower than value set on camera

    I have a six-camera system with five cameras set to 1080p @ 15 fps and one camera set to 1440p @ 25 fps. The cameras are all Dahua IPC-HFW4431R-Z. Encoding mode on the cameras is H.264H. If I view the camera FPS stats in Blue Iris Admin > Status > Cameras, I see the five 15 fps cameras...

    Junction box for IPC-HFW4431R-Z

    Yes it is tight, but it is possible to get everything in there.

    Delayed alerts on iOS app

    Update - I reinstalled Blue Iris and my alerts are now nearly instant.

    What setting is responsible for alert thumbnails?

    Update - I uninstalled Blue Iris and started fresh. I now have thumbnails in my iOS alerts. Rejoice! I wish I didn't have to reinstall, but I'm happy to have this functionality back.

    What setting is responsible for alert thumbnails?

    I'm getting pretty close to re-installing BI entirely. :)

    What setting is responsible for alert thumbnails?

    My user screen has those two boxes checked. The last three systems I've set up are all displaying alert thumbnails (without any extra configuration). Seems like my personal system doesn't want to comply. Argh! Thanks for the reply.

    Junction box for IPC-HFW4431R-Z

    Thanks. I'll try the PFA121. I also picked up a PFA135 (photo attached). It works, but there's not a ton of room for coiling up the wires inside.

    What setting is responsible for alert thumbnails?

    I checked and I have this option selected on my Record tab. I do not get thumbnails in my alerts, though.

    What setting is responsible for alert thumbnails?

    I've got two different BI systems sending push notifications to my iOS device, but only one has thumbnails attached to the alerts. To be clear, I'm referring to when the alert shows on the lock screen/notification center. Off to the right of the notification is a small thumbnail of the alert...

    Motion sensor light triggering alerts

    I tried that as well. The entire area in the upper right is blocked out. I should double check here... the area that is not green is the blocked out/masked area, correct? Most of the mask is green with just the upper-right in black/non-green. Thanks

    Motion sensor light triggering alerts

    I've tried to configure the motion detection to get around this, but I can find the right combination of settings to prevent an alert from being generated in the scenario shown in this video: I've increased the make time, changed the % of lighting change, etc. Is there a sure-fire way to...

    Accessing stored video from mobile?

    I'm still learning the finer details of Blue Iris, so excuse the pedestrian question Is it possible to view stored video from the iOS mobile app? I have cameras that are recording continuously and it would be nice to be able to pull up each day from my phone. I have about three weeks of...

    i5-3470 or i5-3570 worth trying with blue iris?

    I like the Dell Optiplex SFF machines. I've used the i5-3470 in a few installs with satisfactory results. I seem to recall one having an issue handling six 4mpx cameras at 20 FPS. CPU usage was too high (Live View happens to be on 24x7 for this one).

    Junction box for IPC-HFW4431R-Z

    That's an interesting idea, but no... I don't know anyone that could print that shape for less than I'd pay for the boxes on eBay.

    Would the PFA122 or PFA135 work with the IPC-HFW4431R-Z camera?

    Delayed alerts on iOS app

    I'm having an issue where my alerts are 8-10 minutes delayed in reaching my iPhone. For example, I just drove up my driveway at 8:30 AM Eastern and did not get an alert on my phone until 8:38 AM Eastern. I can walk around my house and trigger all the cameras, but all the alerts are delayed...
